Now in its seventh year, Korea Fintech Week 2025 is a fintech event hosted by the Financial Services Commission. It will take place over three days from the 26th to the 28th at the aT Center in Yangjae-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

The theme of the event is "Fintech × Artificial Intelligence (AI): Adding Personalization to Finance." The event will explore how the convergence of AI and fintech is transforming the financial industry paradigm and realizing new possibilities in finance.

The association will hold the Fintech Connecting Day on the first day of the event. Fintech Connecting Day is a networking event that brings together around 200 participants, including fintech companies, financial institutions, investors, and journalists.

A casual pitching session will be held, where fintech companies introduce their services. Eleven promising fintech companies, all members of the association, will each give a five-minute presentation.

In the following networking session, fintech companies, financial institutions, investors, and overseas venture capital firms will participate to exchange information, discuss technology partnerships, and explore investment opportunities.

Additionally, the association, in collaboration with the Financial Supervisory Service, will operate the "TechFinder Showcase," which introduces company technologies and business models, and the "VC Investment Festival," where companies can present their technologies to overseas venture capital firms at individual booths.

Lee Geunju, President of the association, stated, "As AI-driven fintech innovation becomes deeply embedded across the domestic financial industry, practical connections and collaboration within the industry are more important than ever. We hope that Fintech Connecting Day will serve as a starting point for creating an ecosystem where companies can grow together and seize new opportunities."
